  🌿 Personal Portfolio

• sanity

  93 4,927 10.0 TypeScript

  Sanity Studio – Rapidly configure content workspaces powered by structured content

  

I found most people were happy to recommend other headless CMS services like Strapi, Sanity, GraphCMS, etc which did seem to do the job I wanted of providing a platform for me to curate & manage my content without having to redeploy. But most of them had the same issues that I didn't like.

• SurveyJS

  surveyjs.io featured

  Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc.

• Next.js

  The React Framework

  

To get this working there are 2 key things we're going to need: Next.js & the GitHub api. Optionally you can also use some kind of cache, like Upstash, to cache your data & save on requests to the GitHub api.

• Puts Debuggerer

  3,162 91 3.5 Ruby

  Ruby library for improved puts debugging, automatically displaying bonus useful information such as source line number and source code.

Since re-launching my website with an all new redesign I added a number of cool features. One such feature I thought worth sharing about was my portfolio page as it actually uses GitHub as a CMS (Content Management System).

• github-docs

  44 15,549 10.0 JavaScript

  The open-source repo for docs.github.com
